Watch: ALIENS' Power Loader Scene Recreated Using Cardboard

Aliens had a hell of a bar to clear to be as beloved as Ridley Scott's iconic original Alien, but by going against the grain and making the sequel more of an action thriller than a horror movie, James Cameron ended up clearing that bar and creating a film that, against all odds, is pretty much just as beloved as the first one.

It turns out one of the sequel's most iconic scenes — in which Ripley (Sigourney Weaver) jumps in a Power Loader and battles the Xenomorph Queen to protect Newt — looks pretty awesome even when 99% of the props are made with cardboard. Take a look at Cinefix's impressive recreation below:
